STUDENTS got an eye opener when they organised a dance production from scratch.

Eight AS level dance students from The Priory School, Tintagel Road, Orpington, have put the performance together as well as organising the marketing and advertising.

It was designed around the theme Open Your Eyes and the younger children danced in the production, which included modern comtemporary and break dancing.

They began the project at the beginning of January and the first performance will take place on Thursday.

Student Rachel Parker, 16, said: "I was in charge of marketing and advertising and it was a great challenge to do something I'm not used to."

Head of dance Emma Hill said: "They are a fantastic group and are so motivated.

"They have drawn from their skills and pulled it all together. We are looking forward to the show."
